traits: There really is no telling where Echo's personality starts, no real words to fully describe him. Only two have ever really known him completely: his twin sister and Death, his hallucinated feline companion. Those remain the only two to have claimed his heart and soul, no matter how twisted and broken they may be. His main goal is to make the noise go away (which is sadly impossible for him) and make his dead twin and Death happy. Nothing matters more to him. Each day he makes it a point to show someone his dark side, the side that Death rules, to bring them down and twist each part of them he can, both mentally and physically. Each time he kills or makes someone hurt, he saves the sounds inside his brain, playing them over and over again, and making his slaves listen to the dying screams of their comrades. He feeds off their suffering, their fearful voices like a gentle lullaby. He rules with an iron fist, consulting no one but Death on an important decision, and allowing no one but her to control him in any way. Because of this, he has picked up some feline ways. His walk is like the stalking of a cat and he's always ready to pounce on his prey, spilling their blood for him to taste. The metallic taste of the crimson liquid is better than any water, than anything else! Just one drop of the warm, sticky liquid can put him in a frenzy, wanting more and more, and most times it's impossible to hold him back when he gets like this. Echo is well known for preying on helpless foals, separating them from their mothers and sinking his fangs into them, literally ripping them apart. The smell and sound of another's pain is just so intoxicating! He can't help himself.
mental health: Insomnia, psychosis caused by extreme lack of sleep, hallucinates a big black cat with translucent, uncolored eyes named Death

history: Four years ago, in the very heart of a place dubbed Murderotica, two foals were born of opposite genders and colors. Twins like no other, the 'Twins of Death' as they came to be known by their father and the rest of his harem. Echo was born first, the bigger and stronger of the two, and his little sister, Speechless (Lessy) was born black and blind, standing a full hand shorter than her brother. Immediately, the two formed a strong bond. Echo made it a point to lead his sister over to their mother, who was skeletal in appearance, a typical slave, and always allowed her to feed first. Some days, there would only be enough milk for the filly and Echo would be forced to find his own way of feeding. Thus, the tiny colt got into fighting at a young age. He would pick out smaller foals, studying them, waiting for the right time to attack. Echo would lead them away from their mothers, away from the herd, before beginning the slow process of ripping apart their innocence and their sanity. He was only six months old when he suffered a bad head injury that lead to him developing severe tinnitus, the injury gotten when he attacked another colt and their mother kicked at him, hitting him in the head. It was Lessy that brought him back to health.

The injury didn't stop him from fighting, however, knowing it was the only way he could survive, and Soundless Echo, once a slave colt, was soon bumped up to the rank of a warrior in training. His father, however, did not see the same power inside of his sister. In his eyes, she would never amount to anything. Secret plans began for her execution, right under Echo's nose. It was to take place on their second birthday, and Echo was to bring death to her. Each of his father's master warriors began training him, fixing his mind on the mighty ways of blood and gore, until that was all he could think about. As his first year approached, Echo wanted nothing more than to use his power to control whole herds of equines. It was during one of his practices, secluded from everyone else, that death once more crept up to him. His little sister, so pure and innocent, had made the mistake of following him. Echo, unaware of her presents, went about his practice, falling once more into his blood lust as he murdered one slave after another. Long story short, he was left in a shocked silence, looking down at the broken body of his twin, the only one besides himself he had ever cared about. He felt his world stopping, his mind falling into blackness, and for the first time he felt fear ... because, now that his sister was gone, there was no one to pull him away from this state of mind. In that in instant of blackness, he heard a little voice whispering to him. A small black cat, eyes uncolored, watched him. Speaking to him, she introduced herself as Death, and has been with him ever since, slowly manipulating and controlling his mind. She led him away from Murderotica, and for two years he traveled from land to land, and he finally arrived in Wild Equines at four years old.
